Parking Brake

Parking brake should be adjusted when lever must be pulled in excess of eight ratchet notches to fully apply brakes. To adjust, release parking brake lever, and loosen equalizer nut and lock nut. Pull parking brake lever up three ratchet notches, and adjust nuts until rear brakes just begin to bind. Tighten lock nut, and recheck brake operation.

NOTE: If problem is not corrected, inspect condition of rear brake shoes.
